> Major did actually unexpectedly win an election though. Kinnochio was favourite but he sabotaged his own campaign days before the vote.
I was out of the country on business for that one. On the flight on the way home, the pilot announced the result of the election and there was a collective gasp and then silence for a few seconds and then a few cheers and moans as you might expect. I guess most people had gone away were expecting a Labour victory and come back to a Tory one. A mix of Major really pulling it out of the bag and Kinnock blowing it.
